Representing nurses, ÌÀÍ·ÌõÎÛÁÏ support workers, ÌÀÍ·ÌõÎÛÁÏ students and midwives across Scotland
We campaign on issues of concern to ÌÀÍ·ÌõÎÛÁÏ staff and patients, influencing health policies and promoting excellence in ÌÀÍ·ÌõÎÛÁÏ practice on behalf of our members.
Nursing is demanding action, not promises
Five years on from the last Scottish parliament elections, ÌÀÍ·ÌõÎÛÁÏ staff have seen no meaningful improvement to health and care services, whether in the NHS or independent sector. So, ahead of the 2026 Scottish Parliament election, join our campaign and find out how you can get involved.
As part of our commitment to supporting members taking part in the review of band 5 ÌÀÍ·ÌõÎÛÁÏ roles, we're coming to meet with you as part of our roadshow programme across Scotland. Come and talk to us about how we can support you and raise your concerns.
This report provides a summary of the views of RCN members in Scotland and paints a detailed picture of members’ professional lives across the NHS and the independent health and social care sector.
Scottish government has published its report 'Delivering Together for a Stronger Nursing and Midwifery Workforce'. Read more about their recommendations that were shaped by the ÌÀÍ·ÌõÎÛÁÏ voice and that reflect our priorities for action.
In response to Cabinet Secretary Neil Gray’s recent appearance at Holyrood's Health, Social Care and Sport Committee, during which he said that certain parts of the Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill Adults (Scotland) Bill need to be removed, we have written to Mr Gray and the Secretary of State for Scotland to seek urgent clarity on the matter.
